Chapter 2: Waiting

Koenma stood behind his desk shuffling some papers around his desk before glancing at the Reikai Tantei worriedly. "Well…it seems the portal won't open until next year and I can't open it without express permission from my father who will indefinitely say no," said Koenma sighing heavily. Sakura looked away from Koenma downhearted and then she looked up at Hiei and smiled. "And until then Sakura will have to stay with either one of you or you can switch however you like and see me in a year…it is apparently a long wait so get use to Sakura," said Koenma, "Now I will have to attend to some business with Botan." Koenma disappeared with a pop and they were left alone in the room. Kurama turned to looked at Hiei and Sakura who was holding Hiei's hand. Hiei was looking down at her irritably.

Everyone was outside of the park looking around. "Well I have to go or else Keiko's going to kill me," said Yusuke as he headed off towards Keiko's house. Kuwabara nodded too, "Yeah Sis is going to get me too if I don't get home soon enough." Kurama watched Kuwabara disappeared around the corner. "See you later Hiei mother will be quite worried," said Kurama he waved good-bye and ran off.

"Kurama! Take Sakura!" yelled Hiei angrily as he shoved Sakura in the direction of Kurama. Sakura watched Kurama disappear and looked up at Hiei anxiously. "Why can't I stay with you?" asked Sakura. Hiei looked down at her exasperated. Damn Fox I swear he planned this…I'll give Sakura to him tomorrow and if he refuses I'll threaten him till he does, thought Hiei angrily as he strode off into the dark forest. Sakura playfully followed him looking around everywhere. "Uncle Hiei what—"

"What did you call me?" said Hiei quietly he turned to look at her his eyes ablaze with anger. Sakura gasped and looked away… "Um…Hiei what is that?" asked Sakura timidly as she pointed to a sakura blossom.

"I don't know," said Hiei as he turned away from her striding purposefully into the dark cooler regions of the forest. Sakura looked at him questionably and followed him hesitantly. "Hiei are you mad at me?" asked Sakura looking at him sadly. Hiei turned around and stopped as he saw…her, Kurushii his mind drifted to one distinct memory.

"Please Hiei I want to see your necklace!" shouted Kurushii angrily.

"Get away from me or else," said Hiei dangerously his eyes narrowing. His hand grabbed the hilt of his katana and he pulled it halfway out. Kurushii took a step back and snarled at him pulling out her own sword. "You want to be like that then fine!" shouted Kurushii she swung her sword and Hiei parried it with his blade.

"Give up Kuru you'll never win," said Hiei his eyes gleamed with delight as he made a slashed on Kurushii arm.

"OW!" Kurushii grabbed her arm and watched in horror as blood seeped through her fingers dripping onto the ground, pooling around her booted feet. She bit her lip and looked up angrily at Hiei, "Damn you Forbidden Child!" Hiei stopped and for once in his life he felt…guilty, "W-what?" asked Hiei quietly. Kurushii bit her lip and sheathed her sword clumsily with her injured arm. She gave him a venomous glared and turned around and disappeared into the forest. Hiei buried his sword point in the ground and growled angrily. 'Damn it to hell what did he do! I was just having some fun' thought Hiei angrily. "Damn it Kuru what did I do?" shouted Hiei into the dark forest. He was greeted with quiet silence and nothing moved. Suddenly he heard a scream coming from the middle of the forest and the first thought that came to Hiei was, 'It's not my problem.' But he found himself running through the forest jumping from tree branch to tree branch. Kurushii was facing a B-class apparition. "Hello their pretty girly why don't you come over here," said the B-class apparition. He scooted over to her and laid a hand around her neck snuggling close to her. "Get away from me you retarded bastard!" shouted Kurushii angrily she unsheathed her sword and pointed it at the demon glaring at him. The demon didn't seemed fazed at all and just answered the remark coolly, "You have such beautiful pink hair…did anyone tell you how silky and pink it is—" The demon stopped as he saw Kurushii's eyes narrow in hate.

"Shut the fuck up you bastard!" shouted Kurushii as she swung her sword cutting off his head in one slice. "NEVER TALK ABOUT THE DAMN FRICKEN COLORS!" Hiei glared at Kurushii and jumped off of the tree branch. Kurushii turned around her sword raised and she stopped immediately, "H-Hiei what do you want…Forbidden Child?" Her voice was hard and cold filled with pain and anguish. Hiei narrowed his eyes and felt the same feeling as before…guilt. "Hn, just interested in why you're so mad when someone mentions colors." Kurushii gasped softly and growled at him, "So you've heard?"

"Why what's so bad about the colors," asked Hiei.

"S-shut up!" shouted Kurushii she fell to her knee and felt searing pain shoot up her arm. She glanced at the wound casually and saw the blood drip down off her arm. Hiei studied her arm and shrugged not caring at all. "Now…tell me are you…colorblind?" asked Hiei. Something inside of Kurushii exploded and she glared at Hiei. Her eyes glinted dangerously and she snarled at him, "FUCK YOU FORBIDDEN CHILD!" Hiei looked upwards towards Kurushii's eyes and saw depths of emotion in the sea of violet. There was pain, hurt, anguish…and worst of all sadness. Hiei looked away from Kurushii and watched the trees. Tears trailed down Kurushii's cheeks and they dripped to the floor mixing in with the blood. "Hiei…I trusted you…" said Kurushii softly. Hiei looked up at Kurushii and saw her walking away. "Kuru…wait I didn't," Hiei stopped as he saw Kurushii's sword flying towards his head. Hiei ducked and watched it bury itself in a tree. "Go to hell and leave me alone!" came Kurushii's cold voice. Then all traces of Kurushii disappear. Hiei glared at the sword and punched the ground, "Fuck…"

Hiei opened his eyes and saw Sakura standing there worry clouding her eyes. "Please Hiei wake up!" Sakura's tears dripped onto Hiei's cheek as she buried her face in his shirt.

"Get off me," said Hiei softly. Sakura stopped crying and looked up into Hiei's crimson eyes.

"H-Hiei you're alive!" shouted Sakura happily as she hugged him snuggling close to him. "I-I thought that you…d-died b-because you started getting cold and you were shaking uncontrollably, but now you're warm…I was scared," said Sakura as she snuggled closer to Hiei. "G-get off!" shouted Hiei. He stood up and Sakura fell off onto the grass. "Ow…" Sakura stopped as she looked past Hiei. "Hiei look!" shouted Sakura as she pointed behind Hiei.

"What is it!" Hiei turned around and saw Kurama there. Sakura stood up and walked over to Kurama standing on tip toe to hug him.

"Good, take the child you damn fox," said Hiei as he turned to walk away. Kurama took a step forward and nearly fell forward as he felt Sakura holding him. He turned around to look at Sakura who starred at Hiei sadly, "I'll…talk to him I think he's angry at me," said Sakura. Sakura raced after Hiei who stomped off into the forest. She saw the faint swish of his black cloak and trailed after him. "Why are you following me?" asked Hiei from the shadows.

"Because I want to talk to you…about something," said Sakura hesitantly. Hiei stepped from the shadows, "About what?"

"About…mommy." Hiei glared at Sakura and turned away from her. She grabbed onto his cloak, "Please Hiei, I just want to talk."

"Maybe I don't want to talk," said Hiei coldly and he walks away from her.

"Wait Hiei don't…"

"Leave me alone ignorant child," Hiei glared at her and disappeared.
